Can't get the motor started. It was running fine one hr ago. We shut it off for a few minutes and tried to re-start it - no luck
thanks

Sorry, have to ask - you did turn the kill switch back on (never done that myself - much) :)

If you have access to a timing light, check to see if you have spark. If the timing light says you do, change the sparkplugs and try to fire her up.

The 6/8/9.9/15's can sometimes be very finickey about their sparkplugs - and yes, have had them fire perfect today and tomorrow you can pull 'till your arm falls off and not even get a cough out of them..
